After a slew of rival DEX clones sought to siphon away Uniswap’s customers by exorbitant native token rewards to liquidity suppliers in the course of the DeFi increase, Uniswap retroactively airdropped its native token UNI to customers and launched its personal liquidity mining program in mid-September.

Nonetheless, this system could now have a unfavorable influence on the worth efficiency of Uniswap’s governance token — with the rewards program airdropping greater than $260,000 price of tokens every day on the present value of $3.13 every.
UNI started buying and selling for roughly $3, with information of the liquidity mining program serving to drive a rally to a excessive of practically $eight inside three days of the token’s launch. Nonetheless, UNI steadily dropped from Sept. 19 by early November to publish an all-time low of $1.80 on Nov. 5.
Some merchants consider a halt to the liquidity mining program could be finest for Uniswap’s token, with Twitter consumer ‘Tetranode’ telling his 5000 followers that placing an finish to liquidity rewards and the related promoting stress would result in a brand new part of value discovery for UNI:
Alpha in plain sight: in a single week, the farm N dump stress towards $UNI will raise. Liquidity mining stops.
It will likely be attention-grabbing to see the worth discovery then.
